I know what it is that you're talking about, but I don't know the name either. You have to start out with a square piece of paper. Then I think that you fold the corners into the center. Then I think that you turn it over and fold the points into the center again. Then bring the points together and put your fingers in the flaps on the back side. I suppose that I made that as clear as mud!!! Oh my!!!!

I know exactly what you are talking about, but I don't think I ever knew a name for it. I used to LOVE making those when I was in elementary school.

I always called it a "fortune teller."

there is a game based on the paper thingies? Wow I'll have to come over & see it Cheyenne would love that too. & I never knew a name either, but I made them ALOT. Fortune teller sounds good though

This is what I thought too. So I searched fortune teller & did find a website that told you how to make them & called my mom back. The kid asking about it is only like 6 years old, I don't remember playing with them until I was in middle school, but oh well. The kid is pretty spoiled, he is the son of my mom's horse show friend & he had saw one at school & wanted his mom to make to make him one, but they didn't know how, so they called my mom, who called me. If I was his mom, I would of said tomorrow at school why don't you make friends with the kid that has it & ask him to show you how.

Here's the site I found incase you now all wanna make your own.
